President Obama Losing One-Fifth of the Black Vote in North Carolina

President Obama won North Carolina by 14,000 votes in 2008 with 95 percent of the black vote. According to a new PPP poll, he’s now losing almost a quarter of the black vote. One in five black voters in North Carolina actually say they will vote for Romney. The economy? Maybe, but few Republicans have ever won that share of the black vote even when times were tough. A lot of black pastors are pretty upset with President Obama for endorsing gay marriage (see the Coalition for African American Pastors new petition), and it looks like some of their flocks are as well.
